The lack of a Time Turner

First of all, what the hell is a time turner? Well, for those who have seen/read “The Prisoner of Azkaban”skip to the next paragraph, for everyone else -> a time-turner is basically an enchanted sandglass that allows the user to go back in time with the ONLY GOAL of having more free time and under any circumstance change the past.

Now the second question, for what hellish reason do I need a time-turner? After narrating in what I have gotten into you will understand.

Yachay: Pimp my city

Let’s be honest, in China we are living less than 300 equatorians officially, and the fact I was asked to be a guest speaker at an International Students Innovation Forum it was a mix between statistic logic and the fact they have seen me in a previous forum I was a guest speaker too haha. In any case I enjoyed the forum while I explained the Yachay Project but also learning about all the innovations that are taking place in places as Japan, Greek, Finland and here in China. It made me believe that the new generations are taking over the world with the power of their ideas and not only with money. (I’ll write more about this topic as a stand-alone post later)

Ubisoft or “I get pay for playing video games”

Some friends asked me about how I ended up being a play tester for Ubisoft, Ubi is the company that created games as Assassins Creed, Prince of Persia Sands of Time and others. The answer is really easy, I was searching for a part time job online, I found a post about “testing video games”, they sent me a survey about my “video-game” aptitudes and I was called back. I have been 5 times working with them, sadly I can’t talk about the games I tested since I signed an Non-Disclosure Agreement. But if you want to check a little bit about the place you can always check a video I posted before.

Generate changes

Finally, I’m involved in some projects in my university that are connected to my Ph.D. research, related to environment, sustainable development, sustainable development, trends generation, social media power and the involvement of new generations. I do believe that the plans that we want to implement will not be only useful for Tongji but we will be able to generate models and guidelines that could be used in different countries around the world.

I do know that this update was written as a logbook but it has been done in this way because is easy to write new post if everyone is up to date in whatever I’m involved in China. But for now help me out with this question:

How often do you think I should update the blog? Weekly bases, monthly, whenever?
